LEGISLATIVE GOSSIP.

The Senate will be in good adiourning co1-
dition Monday. Legislation is proceeding
with great dispatch.
Mr.. Miller, of Kosciusko County, appeared
in the role of q quaint humorist in his
speech on the Militia bill. lie took the
House quite by surprise.
Representative Jewett got back from New
Albany last evening, a continuance having
been secured in the murder case which he
went to try. He expected to be absent sew
eral days.
A bill was introduced in the House yester-
day by Mr.. Darrock to authorize County
Treasurers to cancel school fund mortgages,
and one by Mr.. Brown to legalize the acts of
the Trustees of Knightstown.
The usual formula was gone through yes
terday afternoon between Colonel Robertson
and the doorkeeper, to-wit: II am Lieuten-
nt-Governor Robertson, and l demand ad
mittance." "You can not be admitted"
There was not much of interest done in
the House yesterday, the time being taken
up in discussions on matters with one or
two EXCEPTIONS of little more than passing
interest But the subsequent session, that
of the mock House held by the pages, was
quite interesting Berthe Feibleman oceu-
pied The chair and engineered things quite
successfully.

WILL BE NO EXTRA SESSION
Unless the General Assembly Gets in Posi-
ton to Attend to Business.

tiOn to Attend to business.
Governor Gray, when questioned yester-
day with regard to the probability of an
extra session, said "I certainly shall not
call an extra session, unless the deadlock
should be broken this week, for it would in
volve an extra expenditure on the part of
the State of nearly 100000, with no pros
poets Of anything being accomplished by it.
l do not know that l shall call an extra ses-
sion, even if the deadlock should be broken,
but not in time to pass bills. | am going to
carefully examine into the condition of the
States affairs within the next few days to

BILE to get along without appropriations If
things were as they were two, four or six
years ago, / would not have the
slightest doubt about it, but would
feel justified in continuing the APP
propriations already made, but there are
various other contingencies to be considered,
such as the condition of the uncompleted
State Institutions the States Just debts
which should be paid, etc. l am not sure
that we can maintain the State institutions
without appropriations under the circum-
stances. 1t is deplorable and serious con-
dition of affairs Look al the Institute for
Feeble-Minded Children for instance. Here

with the Soldiers Orphans Home under the
same management, but bill has already
passed ana become law providing Tor the
organization and maintenance of the latter
and repeating all existing statutes. This
leaves the Feeble-Minded Institute abso-
lutely without protection, control or support
OF any kind. Something must be done in
this matter"
There was not much going on in the way
of political conference at the hotels last
evening The lobbies at the Denison and
at the Grand were throDged as usual at an
early hour in the evening and the legislative
gathered here and there. There are but few
days until the end of the session, and it is
the general opinion that the deadlock will
continue until the closing day.
There was some talk that the Republican
indignation ~ meeting to be held at Tom
lnson Hall tonight was intended to fire the
hearts of the faithful into making an attack
on the Senate doors tomorrow morning.

occur before we get through" " said Senator

so, pshaw" said a Democratic leader
when asked his opinion about the proba-
billties of another outbreak on the part of
the Republicans. "They have no more sand
than they have sense, and that is little
enough, in all conscience"
Messrs. Gardiner, Robertson and Sayre
were in close confab during the session of the
House yesterday afternoon, and it was sur
missed that they were engaged in cooking up
some scheme to effect the final overthrow of
the alleged "usurper" in the Senate.

An os;e.t.onabIe Clause.

WAEHINGToN, Feb. 2S.-Tbe Senate amend
ments to the Pacific Railroad investigation
resolution, with a single exception, are
understood to be acceptable to the House
Committee on Pacific Railroads. But the
clause providing for the appointment of the
Commissioners by the President "by and
with TIE advice and consent of the Senate" f"
is regarded as so Objectionable that a con-
ference is necessary. The President has in
timsted that if the words "by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate" remain IN
the resolution he can not appoint the Com
missioBers before the assembling of the next
Congress. His reason ifcr so holding is that
according to decisions of the Attorney-Gen
eral the resolution does not create such an
Office as can be filled when Congress is not in
session.

ary, reported favorably on Mr.. Winters bill,

The House Votes for an Appropriation to
Mimic Warriors-Appellate Cause Bill.
In the House yesterday, after the opening
formalities, there was long discussion on
the report of the Committee on Towns and
Township Business favoring the passage of
Senate bill No. Ill. providing that the Super
,isors shall take up animals running at
large, the constitutional rules having bean
suspended.
Mr.. Gordon, Mr.. Harrell and Mr.. Gardi-
ner spoke against the bill, and Mr.. Buckles,
Mr.. Metzger, Mr. Miller and Mr. Conger in
favor of it. The bill finally passed by vote
OF 81 yeas and 81 nays.
Mr.. Briant's bill concerning the taxation
of building and loan associations was made
the special order for to-day at . p. m.
Mr.. Nolin's Military bill was then taken
up and read third time.
Mr.. Beasley said that he had talked with
all his constituents and found that none of
them favored the bill. 1t was time to call a
halt on this kind of legislation. He said
take all OF the States Of the Union and they
would average S75 900 a year for the State
militia. He didn't believe that the State
pride Of Indiana wished them TO pay out
this amount each year. 1t was dangerous
for State to rely on a military establish
ment all the time for the purpose of main
tanning the peace.
Mr.. Ibach contrasted the value OF improve
ments on town lots and the value on farm
lands, showing the great increase of the
former over the latter. When il was said
that we should not have q bill OF this kind
for fear of antagonizing certain elements
1t showed that we should prepare for any
emergency that might arise from the organ
ization of any class against the community.
He was more than ever impressed with the
necessity that this bill should pass.
Mr.. Montgomery said that be had been

bearing him to Europe:
NEW YORK, Feb. 2S.-Ex-Congressman English
sailed from his native land after all. In spite of
Howe and Hummel and their suit with bail
bond OF 81 500 hanging over him, he sailed on the
Etrurla. twill be remembered that he was ar
rested on the steamer just as it was on the point
his married sister and his ronsin AZ me nf
of the law dragged him away to court, the steamer
sailed without him. But q fog spraDg up and the
Etruris did not get over the bar. She anchored
inside the hook awaiting a chance OF
weather. On Saturday night ex-Congressman
English got dispatch from his br0ther-in-law
saying that they were at anchor. As DR.. Green,
the President Of the Western Union Telegraph
company was one OF his bondsmen, the tele-
graphic resources OF the great corporation, to-
gether with Dr.. Green's permission, enabled the
young man to know Just what to DO He ac-
cordingly went down to the South Ferry and took
a boat Tor the steamer, which lay off quarantine,
and went aboard, where he was warmly welcomed
by his friends and sister. One of Mr.. Engllsh's
bondsmen said last evening that the ex-Congress-
man was advised to board the Etruria and make
his voyage as he had intended to do before he was
arrested, and he could not blame him. Quite
sensation was created in up town English circles
last night by the news OF his departure, and Mrs,
Case, the plaintiff in the caSs was naturally as
founded. No one dreamed that be could possibly
sail by a steamer that had left her pier twelve
hours before
1t is evident from this dispatch that Mr..
English departed with the full approval of
his bondsmen. His friends here state that
both parties were old and experienced
enough to know whst they were doing, il
there were any improprieties between them,
and that il the other side insists upon a
court proceeding there will be no hesitancy
in meeting ali allegations, though the neces-
sity Of doing so will be regretted.

THE CONVICT LABOR oUEsEIoN.
Annual Report of Labor Commissioner
Carroll ID. Wright.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2e.--Carrou ID. Wright,
Commissioner of LABOR, has submitted to
the Secretary of the Interior his second
annual report, which relates entirely to the
subject of convict labor 1t says that the
prison population of "a, 900 has proportion
of one in a thousand to the population Of the
United States. Whatever competition, con-
sidering the country at large, which cones

through the different States. The industry
employing the greatest number is that

lumber and carpetiDg In the order named.
The total product of all penal institutions is
55-I00 Of per cent. OF the total production
Of the industries OF the country.
The report states that ii is perfectly evil
dent from information obtained that the
competition arising from the employment
OF convicts as far as the whole country Is
concerned, would not of itself constitute a
question worthy OF serious discussion How
ever, locally and in certain industries, says
the report. the competition may be serious
and OF such proportions as to claim the most
serious attention of legislatures. The Com

RETURNED WITHOUT HIS APPROVAL.
The President VetOes the Bill Providing for
aPablic Building at Lafayette.

WAsHINGToE, Feb. 2s.--The President has
vetoed the bill which provided for public
building at Lafayette, Ind. The message
says: L have been informed since this bill
has been in my hands that last spring a
building was erected at Lafayette with
special reference to its use for the Post
office, and that part of it was
leased by the Government for that
purpose for the term of five years Upon
the faith of such lease the premises thus
rented were fitted up and furnished by the
owner of the building in a manner especially
adapted to postal uses, and an account of
such fittings Gp and furnishing is before me,
showing the expense of the same to have
been more than s. 200. In view of such new
and recent arrangements made by the Gov
eminent for the transaction of its postal
business at this point, it seems that the pro.
posed expenditure for the erection of a
building for that purpose is hardly necessary
or justifable."
